Avoiding Damage to Material, Property and the Device
Position the cable in such a way that it does not
•
become squashed or bent and does not come into contact
with hot surfaces.
Only switch on the device when the water reservoir
•
is filled with water as otherwise the water pump may be
damaged and the useful service life of the device may be
shortened.
Do not place any heavy objects on the device, the
•
cable or the plug.
Do not pull or carry the device by the cable.
•
Do not use any other accessories. Use only original
•
manufacturer's accessories.
Never pour any cleaning agent or other chemical
•
additives into the device. This could destroy the device and
safe working is no longer guaranteed.
Never cover up the steam outlet openings and do
•
not stick any objects into them.
Maintain a sufficient distance from heat sources
•
such as hobs or ovens in order not to damage the device.
Do not drop the device or allow it to be knocked
•
violently.
Do not expose the device or accessories to extreme
•
temperatures, wide temperature fluctuations, open fire,
direct sunlight, and do not expose the device housing to
any moisture or wet conditions.
Always try cleaning first at a small, inconspicuous
•
spot.
Never direct the steam at one spot for too long.
•
Never use the device on cold glass surfaces (at
•
temperatures of below 10°C). The hot steam could cause
the glass to shatter.
In the case of surfaces treated with wax, the heat
•
and steam may remove the wax!
Do not use any caustic or abrasive cleaning agents
•
(e.g. vinegar) or cleaning pads to clean the device.
